Abstract

We discuss the anaesthetic treatment and laser excision of a subglottic tumour that induced upper airway obstruction in this article. The presenting feature was Stridor. A thorough examination and good history will lessen the possibility of an incorrect or delayed diagnosis and enhance patient outcomes. This case report highlights the use of target-controlled infusions and jet ventilation (high-pressure source ventilation) in the surgical excision of a subglottic tumour and its inherent risks and dangers. Apnoeic oxygenation is a useful modality to prevent early desaturation in procedures that involve a shared airway. Constant vigilance, good communication between team members and adhering to best practice guidelines will ensure a safe outcome.
